After another week in my moderately interesting life, I figured I would do a little blogging. I try to have a good time every weekend and the most recent was no different. Billy (my best friend), Katie (my best friend’s girl) and I went to Branson this weekend. It was definitely nice getting out of Jefferson City for a little while. Don’t get me wrong, JC will be a nice place to live in ten years or so when I’ve most likely settled down with a family. But for an adventurous twenty-one year old, it can be somewhat of a boring place to live. I guess being stranded in a town with limited activities ones whole life, and where being twenty-three and single is an odd thing, there are only two possible ways to go. You either accept it and stay or your brain grows an exploratory section and just takes off.
At the moment, I feel the need to just get out and see as many places as I can. For example, I went to Hollywood and Los Angeles over the summer and it was probably the most surreal experience I’ve ever had. To actually see and be in a place that I’ve only seen in movies or on television was absolutely crazy. The weather was unbelievable. No rain, sunshine all the time, and no humidity. Why did I leave? I guess it is true, there’s no place like home.
You might be wondering why I went to Branson. Well I’ll let you in on it. Our little group or the Three Amigos went to see Sebastian Maniscalco. He happens to be the guy in the picture above next to a strikingly handsome individual. This guy is probably my favorite comedian with Joe Rogan and Dane Cook coming in close behind him. Much like any good comedian, he can relate to an audience. He takes things that occur in everyday life and ads his own comedic flare to them. It’s got to be some of the funniest shit I’ve ever heard and seen. I’ll post a link to a couple videos.

Hope you got to take a look at the videos and liked em. After this little comedy show and some time to let it sit in my brain and settle in, I did some thinking today. I do that sort of thing a lot. Being able to laugh at things is fantastic. Realizing the things that we laugh at most probably happen everyday is even better. Seeing this comedy show just reminded me to just take the time and laugh at the little things. Life is funny, and it always will be. Everybody has their own little behaviors, their own characteristics that make them seem funny to the rest of the world.
For example, I’m a short, somewhat skinny, average looking (at best) white guy who doesn’t make much money and sings in the car while no one is looking. Some times I go around the house shadow boxing or quoting various lines from movies to myself. This could be a little funny to some. God forbid people actually knew how crazy we were. Why not let people know? If everyone said some of the crazy things they did, we would realize we have more in common with each other than ever though possible.
I don’t really have much to elaborate on in this blog but I hope there’s still some meaning in it. I just want to remind you fine folks to take the time out of your day and find some humor in the little things. Life doesn’t always have to be so serious. Take a look around and you’ll probably see some funny stuff if you pay attention. Nothing extraordinary has to take place either. Just walk into a local grocery store or restaurant and spend a little time there. Trust me, something will make you laugh or think about laughing while you’re there. That’s the beauty of it. Appreciation of little things in life can bring tons of satisfaction. Until next time. God bless.
